Analysis
The recently completed improvements to MacArthur Boulevard provided for a traffic signal at the landfill entryway and a new entrance for the neighboring horse farm and a new entrance for the neighboring pipe and precast plant. During the planning phase for this project, Komatsu produced a design for an entry way sign, an electronic billboard, a base for the compliance sign and a new industrial grade landfill fence that will deter forcible entry. This project will provide for the purchase of the video board, the construction of the video board support structure, the base of the compliance sign, the landfill gate and support structure as well as the electrical support required to operate the signboard, the gate and an after-hours keypad to be used by Water Utilities and Republic Waste Services between 5:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m.
Notice of bid #18002 was advertised and distributed to thirty-five vendors. There were two Grand Prairie vendors available. Two bids were received as shown on attachment A.
The low bid received from C Green Scaping, LP. meets specifications and is recommended for award.
